Microsoft Flight Simulator X (PC Games, 2006)

The most amazing flight simulator ever, built-in with ATC features, which can provide you various information both in flight and on the ground like progressive taxi and radar vector!!!!!!!! Take flight lessons with world-famous instructor Rod Machado. Learn the basics of both Glider and Helicopter(also include advanced mission). Complete IFR simulation with customize weather phenomenon. This will help you to increase your flight proficiency.

More real than any other game in the world. I'm a licensed pilot and find it amazing that so much "real" detail is available in this simulator.

Short and sweet ! J'ai fait quelques courts, quelques vols, et je me suis tanné. Peut-etre le jeux est-il trop compliqué... De plus, il vous faut une machine d'enfer pour pouvoir le faire tourner avec des graphiques moyens !! De plus, il est très difficile de trouver la version Deluxe à moins de 40$, malgré que cela soit un assé vieux jeu (mais j'ai quand même réussi !!!).
Si vous le trouvez pas cher, gâtez-vous ! Sinon, passez votre chemin.

I am a commercial pilot and I was amazed at the realism of this simulator. Cockpit detail is amazing - you can even use the mouse to grab the controlls and switches to move them. I was completely blown away by the level of detail of the terrain. I selected my hometown airport to fly from and the mountains looked EXACTLY as they do in real life! I couldn't believe it! A great Simulator - makes me want to upgrade my computer so I can run it at the highest level of detail and graphics.

Interested in flying and air to air combat. Have to learn to fly before combat. You can obtain a lot of knowledge from this simulator, with so many different planes (and helicopter)to fly.I still have not got to all of the planes,jets and missions I will get to fly.exellent learning game,would be great to use before actual flying lessons.

I have purchase items on EBAY before and have never been dissappointed, so I thought I would try it, again. I had purchased a new computer and wanted to upgrade my FS2004 to FSX. I saw the great deal on EBAY and bid on it. I won the bid. The game was shipped on time and I received it when I expected it to arrive. The game was in good order and everything advertised was there. I was most happy with the service and will most likely use EBAY the next time I am in need of something that is advertised there.

The game was purchased for our 10 year old grandson and he was estatic when it arrived. The game downloaded and played just fine on his laptop computer. Later he brought it over to our home wanting to play it with his grandpa and we couldn't get it downloaded. We received an error saying the game had reached it's limit of being downloaded on different computers. I had to call the support number and argue with them until they gave me a code number to use. I had no idea that when you bought a game there was a limited number of times it could be downloaded onto computers.
Our grandson had been asking for this particular game for some time. The game is wonderful with great graphics and you can fly anywhere in the world! Very Cool!

Great Graphics. But every time you want to change planes or crash it takes a long time to reload. Also your computer has to have a DVD reader to play this game. All and all it is a fun game.

Yes! I did buy this item and payment was already sent to the seller 'stairways' but I did not receive it.
The seller clailmed he did not receive any payment! even though payment was sent through bidpay. A dispute was therefore opened then eventually closed after I ended up with a 'Strike". However, after I submitted a proof of payment it was removed.
But I lost $79 !

In fact I thought Ebay would help in this regard!

Don't buy used - had a problem with the access code to use online and could not save the game. Very disappointing for my son!

I have owned 98 and 2004 but this is better by far. It also has much more stable controls for use with the joy stick. It allows for full simulated IFR flight that is as close to the real thing for pilots practicing approaches. What is really fun is that I can do all my approach practice at my local fields. It also has the ability to load the current weather, so if it's snowing outside, I can try my skill (luck) at landing the ILS in real weather minimums. Overall just great!

The Flight Simulator is a great game for many who want to lean to fly but can't afford lessons and others who just either love the game since Flight Sim. 98 or real pilots. One thing I love about the game is the vast sellection of aircraft like the Wright Brother's Flyer. I do however hate that their is a problem that most people have faced with installation including me.

I wanted to buy this Flight Simulator a long time ago. Airplanes have been one of my passions since I was a little kid. However, this game was about 60 or 70 dollars when it first came out and I knew I could get it cheaper here on eBay and I did get it last month for 12.00 dollars. I love FSX!!! It really gives you the feeling of flying. By the way, I do recommend though that you buy a joystick to use it. It's really hard with the keyboard and in my opinion is not as enjoyable as it is with a joystick. In fact, it's really hard to use the keyboard. One thing though about this is that if you really want to enjoy the beauty of this game you definitely have to have a dual core processor and a decent graphics card to set FSX at its highest graphics level and not compromise performance. You could play FSX at its lowest graphics and traffic level with the minimum specifications required by the game though. However, to enjoy the beauty of FSX, that is, flying an airplane and seeing more traffic around you, landing at an airport with airplanes landing and taking off, seeing the signs on the runway, listening to ATC and other airplanes communicating, watching ground vehicles and just like in a real life airport it is definitely mandatory a good processor and graphics card. Another thing I loved about this game is that you can download and add your favorite airplane of a real airline!! FSX uses fictitious airlines' names, but add-ons give you the chance of flying your favorite airplanes and airlines!! You could even fly the new Airbus A380!!

I'm still new to FSX and I know there are lots of more things and surprises to discover. I've been doing this by trial and error but sooner or later you are going to have to read some of the material and lessons provided. Oh! I forgot about the missions! Taking the missions is a very good way to start if all you want to do is flying!!!! There are three different levels and they're very fun and helpful and you can try them as many times as you want and every time you succeed, you get a prize!!

Overall I was very impressed with FSX since it really gives you the feeling of flying an airplane. This is not a game!! The title says it all: Flight Simulator really simulates flying!!!

Huge program, 9.4GB. This program will not run well on the ordinary PC, you need at least 2GB of RAM, a CPU not less than a Core 2 or a 3gig Pentium, and a good video card. After that, it is a spectacular game, considerably better graphics than Flight Sim 2004. I love it!

This is a great way to relax and enjoy a few hours of fun in a number of aircraft at a great selection of airports and simple landing strips. The aircraft are realistic and there is a virtual realism that gives you the effects of various natural weather conditioons. I flew Hang gliders and a variety of Ultralites for a number of years and this software gives a very realistic feel to the simulation, the only thing missing is the feeling in your stomach of the themal lift and downdraft reacting on the craft. The same goes for the sailplane and the helicopters. I wish the programmers were able to give sensory imput with the visual.

This game comes on two DVD's which really cuts down on the installation time compared to regular cd's. The game has amazing graphics and many improvements over the provious Flight Simulator series. A+

I love this game. It is quite a step up from 2004. I lost my FS 2004 CD and I was going to buy a new FS 2004 but I bought FSX istead and its so much better

I need the software license to register in my PC. I think they are selling Software without it. I dont like to make business with people like that.

The simulator is very user friendly with a lot of uses and is very cool. The new aircraft are very fliable and the scenery is amazing.

The price was right on. Delivery was swift to say the least. The game is realistic both visually and audibly. The only thing I do recommend is that to take advantage of the full graphics is to have lots of memory, and a really good video card.

Great game. Almost like real flying.
Need a very strong computer.
Also - dosn't have airplanes types that were on previous versions.

my boyfriend loves this game and he cant stop playing it every time he plays the game hes on it for hours this is a great product.

The graphics wasn't as good as I thought it would be. Wasn't that impressed with the scenarios. It was okay but since I have the previous game I was hoping this would be twice the enjoyment. This would be good for someone who is just starting out and hasn't played the previous version. Thanks
